82\\ Do You Practice Positive Thinking? 4 Ways To Start Today

82\\ Do You Practice Positive Thinking? 4 Ways To Start Today

Good morning Beautiful Souls, I heard an inspiring prayer the other day and there was a line in it that stuck in my head. The priest said, “Right thoughts lead to right actions and right actions lead to right living.” I rewound that line on my drive home from the service and asked myself if I had right thoughts which of course, I interpreted as positive thoughts and the answer was yes. So let’s this episode down into 3 parts of right or positive thinking: Number 1) What is positive thinking? Number 2) How can we achieve it? And Number 3) What are the benefits of positive thinking? If you are a negative thinker, or practice negative self-talk, you can change your behaviors with practice. If you are positive thinker, this will be a good reminder when it is one of those times you are really stuck and need a good reset.

79\\ How To Resolve Conflicts Successfully With Family, In Marriage, In Business & All Relationships

Good morning Beautiful Soul, Conflict. It's something we deal with throughout our lives. And, more often than not, we don't deal with it in a constructive way. We may blow up as a result of the conflict, avoid the person or, even ignore the situation we are fighting about hoping it will blow over. And as we know, these techniques do not work for a long term solution. The secret to successfully resolving conflict is to really listen to the other and process what you say through your heart. We dig a lot deeper into this subject in this week's podcast. So, listen in, and I would appreciate if you are moved by something you hear, please leave a 5 star review on Itunes so that others who may need to may receive this free gift too.

78\\ Leaving A Legacy -Why Your Life Story Is The Best Gift To Leave For Your Children & Future Generations

Good morning Beautiful Soul, Over the years, I’ve been blessed to learn the extraordinary lives others were living but had not shared with others –not even their children.

They wanted a meaningful and lasting legacy that could help capture and guide their lives and live on with their children, family and future generations. For this episode, I will give you a free resource to use to start to shape your own life story that may even we will work on a thinking and writing exercise that will help you to do just that -begin to leave your legacy.

76\\ Do You Know How To Spot Red Flags In Your Relationships? And Do You Know What To Do About It?

76\\ Do You Know How To Spot Red Flags In Your Relationships? And Do You Know What To Do About It?

Good morning Beautiful Soul, I have to say, there are certain topics that I get a few questions on and then there are others that there are so many, I know it is a topic that I have to cover. Spotting Red Flags in relationships was one of those topics. The questions started with a number of followers talking about the sad endings of romantic relationships - be it an engagement, a marriage, or a long term love interest - even though every follower admitted that if they were honest with themselves the red flags were always there. Other emails came in talking about friendships that showed red flags and still others talked about emotionally draining work situations where they chose to ignore the red flags. So, I decided I would dedicate this show to spotting red flags and what we need to do to deal with them in order to protect ourselves and keep us in the healthy relationships we deserve in all areas of our lives. Let me know your thoughts on this podcast since I would love to hear from you: hi@mymagnusopus.com. And until next week, I send you so much light and love, Rosanna

75\\ Finding Strength In Your Weakness - 3 Reasons You Must

75\\ Finding Strength In Your Weakness - 3 Reasons You Must

Good morning Beautiful Soul, I used to think I had to look like I had it all together. Everything had to be just right -- from my marriage to my family to my career to my home and the list went on. The truth is, it was rarely all together. None of that truth changed except the fact that I was finally comfortable enough in my own skin to admit how many times and how many things I can and do get wrong. What I didn't realize is what a gift admitting that would be not only for myself, but for the kids that looked up to me, those that looked to me as a role model, my peers, my friends and almost everyone around me. Without sharing my vulnerabilities, they were afraid to share theirs. And with vulnerability, I could not graciously receive help. I have come to learn I am strongest when I feel my most weak. For, it is in that state, I get to lean into God and not rely on my own strength or knowledge. I also accept help from others. What a blessing a perceived weakness truly is. I hope this podcast episode gives you permission to be open about yours and recognize how strong you truly are!

74\\ How To Recover From The End Of A Long Term Relationship - Proven Ways To Heal

74\\ How To Recover From The End Of A Long Term Relationship - Proven Ways To Heal

Good morning Beautiful Soul, At some point, or for many of us, at several points during our lives, the romantic relationships we are involved in come to an end. Rarely does it end in a smooth way where you both just decide it’s time to move on and go your separate ways. Instead, in almost all instances it involves grieving and separation process. This applies not only to the couples that have been fighting or taking breaks from each other but also for the couples who have just remained together “settling” in a relationship that isn’t best for either of them because they did not want to face the prospect of dating again. The process of splitting up isn’t easy since bonds we’ve formed with serious partners make it hard to imagine life without them. But, there comes a time when if we listen to your heart or God’s voice, we know it is time for a new chapter. And the new chapter is better because we emerge with a stronger sense of self and learn lessons that will serve us in our next and often better and healthier relationship. I have spoken to so many people as they went through break-ups and divorces, plus I’ve had my own share of them. We discussed the ways we coped and got through to the other side of the split. On the other side of these break-ups we discussed what the best things were that we did to help us through the process. Everyone had a bunch of suggestions but there were 6 that we could all agree on so I thought these would be great to share with you. I hope these help get you through this difficult time. Remember, you are not alone. Join our supportive private community on Facebook: My Magnus Opus Community or email me: hi@mymagnusopus.com. Until next week I send you so much light and love, Rosanna

72\\ The Secret To Self-Love? Mirror Work. Yes, Even Jennifer Lopez Does It!

Good morning Beautiful Soul, Do you truly love yourself? Do you know how to love yourself? I started my self-love journey years ago when I stumbled upon the work of an incredible spiritual teacher and healer named Louise Hay.

68\\ Second Chances...Are You Ready For One? Prepare Your Heart To Start This Season Anew

Good morning Beautiful Soul, I hope you had a wonderful Easter and Passover. If you are not celebrating either of these Holidays, let me invite you into the sadness and ultimate triumph and celebration each of these holidays bring. They both end in a time of redemption; a time for second chances, a time to be freed of our sins. There is a Psalm I read at the start of Holy Week which began last Sunday. It reads: “Purify me from my sins, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” During this season of Spring and rebirth, it seems only appropriate that we should, repent ask for forgiveness and be cleansed whiter than snow. Imagine the purity and beauty for a moment of unblemished snow and ask yourself what it is you need to be forgiven and cleansed for? What habit has prevented you from being all you are called to be? Listen in and start anew!
